Houston breast clinic completes EBM Mammo PACS install

The Rose Breast Center in Houston is now operational with EBM Pangea Mammo PACS, from EBM Technologies, a provider of web-enabled PACS and teleradiology products.

Pangea, a multi-vendor medical review workstation, has been designed exclusively for digital breast imaging. EBM PACS is designed to manage the workflow of an imaging healthcare enterprise and has the power to connect disparate systems and provide automated interoperability to the enterprise, according to the Honolulu-based EBM.

EBM Pangea System, using the HL7 and DICOM standards, is also able to achieve customer prescribed delivery of appropriate data for review and diagnosis wherever it is needed throughout an enterprise.
